Think I've had enough of pulling up Himalayan balsam reckon it'll be good to get back to my local waters where the variety of rhododendrons, giant hogweed, Jap knotweed, signal crays, mink and Himalayan balsam are getting to be the "norm". if as requested in the last e.mail each visiting angler pulls up the Himalayan balsam near to where their fishing and reports any sightings of any of the above non native flora or fauna then the Wye and Usk doesn't have to become the "norm"

No fish caught, some salmon showing at the bottom end of the beat. Excellent work done on clearing the banks for access by Mick the gillie.

Decent day's fishing although had to move twice due to the opposite bank having anglers turn up to fish directly opposite me !!! Ended up with 4 barbel and 5 chub

The weather was bright and sunny and the river was about a foot higher than when we fished this stretch around the same time last year. Between the two of us we had 40 chub in the 2-5 pound range and 2 barbel that were about 5 pounds each. Most of the fish were taken on the float (waggler) on either 8mm pellets or bread mainly from swims on the left bank, the bottom two swims producing the majority of the fish. The first swim below the bridge on the right bank did produce one of the barbel and 3 chub.

We had a great day on the Wye again but fishing was slow. The river looked good but unfortunately the barbel would not play so chub were the only fish caught despite trying a few swims. We fished until dark but it made no difference. Still a great venue and after all it is called fishing not catching. Thanks Wye Usk will be back. MH Standish.
